My Inspirations - jewel coloured weddings

I am not sure why but I have kept this image on my computer, I think I would like my house to look like this, albeit I already have hot pink and turquoise mixed with whites but it certainly looks nothing like this!!!

I love all the textures, the flashes of colours and the chill out bed, and visualise a wedding theme coming on from this board.

I have found a few inspirations on this idea having been working on one of our brides themes, she has some fabulous different coloured bridesmaids dresses, which is becoming a hugely popular alternative to all the matching bridesmaids this year.

Whilst I love the colours below for an idea I do think if you picked the colours from my photo above with the hot pink, turquoise, orange and that fabulous green this would really make a stunning wedding.

Fabulous Florals

We just love the fabulous florals that are still taking one of the top slots in wedding styling, and were thrilled to find this image on The City Sage.

It showcases the decadence of the hugely popular floral style that is still taking the fashion and interior worlds by storm.

We cannot wait to see our latest photo shoot of a Cath Kidston style centrepiece and cake and now have these two fabulous accessories coming to our shop soon.

Check out our floral card cake stand at just 14 euros, easy and quick to assemble and ideal for garden style weddings or vintage tea parties to pop your fairy cakes on.

Flat packed and easily transportable, saving you the hassle of hiring or buying a china piece and worrying about it breaking.

We adore these beautiful vintage style teacup candles at 15 euros each, a gorgeous and unique gift for your girlfriends, set them out on your tables to complete that fabulous vintage style. They come in a selection of sherbet colours and can be washed once the candle has finished and used as a normal teacup.

Both these items will be available in our shop next week.

Red and white wedding inspiration

A few of our brides this year are having a red and white theme for their wedding and we have been working on this colour scheme with various styles and inspiration boards to reflect these different variations.

Combine red roses with diamante and tall martinis for a more glamorous, smart black tie affair. Red roses, of course being the flower of love! Packed tightly into martinis or low table arrangements are stunning just as one single rose in a vase.

Flowers that work well with this smart, elegant scheme are white cala lilies and red roses,

a fabulous floral combination for the stylish sophisticated wedding.

We have also been creating another red and white wedding beach theme using red anthuriums and white orchids, a different and more tropical combination. But again two fabulous flowers that as a combo work really well together.

Warm this up with a few oranges or striking greens and you completely change the look.

Reds and whites of course are also a hugely popular colour choice for the chill out look, which of course if you are planning a chill out style for your wedding, will combine really rather well.

Finish this off with a themed cocktail such as one of my favourites, Strawberry Daquiri and you have a party in the making!
